    Not sure why Mankind has disappeared ... Stone's always been weird about singing, though.

    Aren't worth listening to. Are you referring to Chris Cornell? He happens to be a lead singer that can reach SEVERAL octaves.

    I think I was talking about Stone doing background, mostly. The Mankind thing was cute, for a while.

    I think I'd leave singing to a scream on a Brad record, or something.

    Errr...I know that this isn't what PJ fans want to hear (or so I was told), but ...followed any other really famous rock bands of the past decade? Methinks there's a certain lead guitar player who sings in five octaves and provides amazing backing vocals to a not-so-good-singer.

    I'll admit that I haven't really followed popular music much in the last few years...but I have no idea who you're talking about. Five octaves? That's impressive.

    I always thought Jerry Cantrell's voice was really good, both in harmony with Layne and by himself.

    Give me a break with that other stuff!

    I was just being sarcastic. I love Stone. His not for you solo is one of favorites. BTW, anyone check out that beard hes got. Badass

    Mankind sucks. Period. I've always hated it. Nothing against Stone I love the guy but I just don't care for his singing. He is an awesome guitar player/song writer and thats what he should stick to. But on the other hand I don't mind Jeff's vocals.

    Umm....he's talking about John Frusciante.
    Duh.
    I thought more people would figure that out.
    Anthony Kiedis blows.
    He really holds that band back...he's not even a good lyricist.

    They did the same song in Cleveland that same tour, and everyone started chanting Stones name after the song was over.

    I was at the above mentioned Cleveland show in 2006 where Stone sang Don't Gimme No Lip. If you go to enough shows eventually you will here Stone sing a song. I liked his singing, but I really liked seeing Eddie as a backup singer (he sings "its just a problem" all weird and Stone goes "Whoo!" and its awesome) it isn't a fantastic song and the band knows that and the fans know that but its FUN.

    I'd like to see Mankind sometime too, but honestly I'd rather see the band tackle "Pigeon" or "Bayleaf" off of Stone's solo album. It would be cool.

    While they are at it, what the hell... let Matt sing some Wellwater Conspiracy stuff. If I heard "Good Pushin'" at a Pearl Jam show I might lose my mind from the sheer awesomeness.

    That is all,
    Bill

    Are you really asking that question? Did you hear the frontman's voice?

    Summing it up perfectly, that's all there is to say. Close thread.
